I'm attempting to update a customer table using an XML file, but it's not pulling the values from the XML into the variables to pass into the table. The error I get says "Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'EmailAddress'" even though there is clearly a value for EmailAddress. I feel like I'm missing something very simple, but can't figure it out. Any thoughts?
USE MyGuitarShop
DECLARE @CustomerUpdate XML
SET @CustomerUpdate =
'<NewCustomers>
<Customer EmailAddress="izzychan@yahoo.com" Password="" FirstName="Isabella" LastName="Chan" />
<Customer EmailAddress="johnprine@gmail.com" Password="" FirstName="John" LastName="Prine" />
<Customer EmailAddress="kathykitchen@sbcglobal.net" Password="" FirstName="Kathy" LastName="Kitchen" />
</NewCustomers>';
INSERT Customers (EmailAddress, Password, FirstName, LastName)
VALUES
(
@CustomerUpdate.value('(/NewCustomers/Customer/EmailAddress)[1]', 'varchar(255)'),
@CustomerUpdate.value('(/NewCustomers/Customer/Password)[1]', 'varchar(60)'),
@CustomerUpdate.value('(/NewCustomers/Customer/FirstName)[1]', 'varchar(60)'),
@CustomerUpdate.value('(/NewCustomers/Customer/LastName)[1]', 'varchar(60)')
);
SELECT * FROM Customers
